Description : Road Ride
Start Location : Andrew Haydon Park
Start Time : 9:00 AM Departure - gather 8:30 -- 8:45
Finding a new bit of road here and there, in hopes of seeing more colours!
*Group composition will depend on having a Ride Leader, and interest for specific Distance/Speed combinations, as determined by who shows up at the start point.
Available Rides
A (146 km, 944 m elevation gain)
Another longer-than-usual route which can be easily trimmed, as desired; 5 kms here, 5 more over there. Make it up as you go along. The idea being to find pockets of colour without going too far afield.
B (100 km, 648 m elevation gain)
In search of new roads, and Fall colours, here's a new routing to get to Fitzroy Harbour, where you will find fliush toilets in the park. There aren't any comfort stops between Kanata/Carp and Fitzroy, save for the gas station in Kinburn on the return.
C (75 km, 469 m elevation gain)
New roads to follow, closer by the Carp Ridge, in hopes some colour remains. Suggested primary stop in Carp but emergency stop at the Esso station in Kinburn.
D (58 km, 391 m elevation gain)
Hunting for colours along a couple of new road segments. Comfort stop in Carp suggested.
The return follows a new road in Kanata (Leggett Dr) and also includes the pathway rather than Carling. Your choice of which to follow.
